Red Spice Blend

I'm on a kick for homemade spice blends.  I just get so bored with food that has the same spices on it...day in, day out.  Here's another one to break up the monotony.

1T basil
2T onion powder
1T cumin
1T ground black pepper
1/2t celery salt.

Shake well and store in air tight container for up to 6 months.
